US-based charter brokerage Flygreen has been named as a top 10 innovator at the 2024 Canadian Business Innovation Awards, held at the Toronto Region Board of Trade in April.

Canadian Business selected Flygreen for its innovative approach to making private aviation sustainable, creating products and services that improve the environment while delivering exceptional travel experience. Through products such as JETPRO - a tool that uses AI to track flight options based on cost, convenience and environmental considerations, Flygreen has been able to help customers select lower-impact flights.

"Celebrating innovation isn't just about recognition; it's about embracing the relentless pursuit of progress," says CEO and co-founder Matt Keezer. "We are honoured to accept this award, which is a testament to our team's unwavering dedication to pushing boundaries and redefining what's possible in an industry that will see much needed innovations in the years to come."

"Being named one of Canada's top innovative companies reaffirms our commitment to pioneering solutions that not only meet the needs of today but anticipate the challenges of tomorrow," says co-founder Ryan Saroli. "This accolade isn't just a milestone; it ignites our continued journey towards shaping a brighter, more sustainable future for all."

The CB Innovation Awards celebrates those companies leading the charge in challenging the status quo and redefining what it means to be an innovator. Spanning all sectors- from heath care to fintech to fashion and beyond - the CB Innovation Awards shine a spotlight on the disruptors that are driving transformative change in their industry.
